I have a theory that there is a impossible trinity (like in economics), where a food cannot be delicious, cheap and healthy at the same time. At maximum 2 of the 3 can be achieved.

Is there any food that breaks this theory?

Edit: I was thinking more about dishes (or something you put in your mouth) than the raw substances

Some popular suggestions include

  • fruits (in season)
  • lentils, beans
  • rice
  • mushrooms

    This is a really good writeup

    Thanks

    At a glance, I’m guessing these three meals don’t collectively exceed 1,000 calories

    Except for the breakfast, I didn’t specify the quantities. So I guess some could adapt those “recipes” to their needs.

      Fair enough! I read “chicken filet” and assumed that was one breast at most, which is less than 300 calories. Unless you’re eating an absurd amount of pasta and peas, that’s not too many calories.
